tax releases, i'm sorry. i couldn't understand the level of attack, where he was going. it seemed like he just didn't really want to compete. >> well, look, piers, certainly there has been frustration by democrats on some of the lost opportunities here, but let's try to take a look at what he actually did and perhaps what he was thinking. he wanted to have a conversation with the american people and let's talk about one of the things that i actually think he did do right, which was look into the camera, i think it was a deft move because it really shows that he does want to have that direct conversation, talked about what he has done and what he wanted to continue to do, and point out the disastrous policies that romney wants to put in place. but what i think happened was while he wanted to quote, do no harm and he was practicing the political equivalent of the hippocratic oath, he let romney get away with being a total hypocrite and telling the blatant lies and blatant untruths and not going after him on the 47%, on his offshoring. i do think that that was missed opport
